The Importance Of Immigrants In The United States
I think that the president should allow immigrants in because there is a lot of people who need a better life because they are in middle of war right now. Maybe we could let immigrants in if we only do a better job researching them and interviewing. It’s not just iraqis it’s also mexican that are trying to feed their families. When they cross the border they officially committed a crime, and they don’t pay taxes because they don’t want to get caught and get send back to their country, or get a worst punishment. So they work on jobs that doesn't rise suspicion and most jobs that pay good needs the immigrants to provide information but there is so jobs that does not pay well but horrible conditions. If it does not raise suspicion and it does

    If you were born in a poor country and you could barely survive, what would you do? If you heard that there are opportunities for a better life in more advanced countries, would you try your luck there in an attempt to provide a better life for your family? Although the reasons that brought all the immigrants to the Unites States may vary, a typical case is that in which an individual is born in a family with limited resources and he comes to the U.S. with hopes of having a better life. Those who have empathy would want to help those going through a difficult situation by letting them into our country. However, simply acting based on emotions is not sufficient; reasoning and logic are crucial when governing a nation. After an examination of…

    Immigration is the process of foreigners settling into another country permanently for the purpose of employment, education, or any other purpose. Immigration has been an issue to United States for decades. The question whether Immigration in US is harmful to the country or not has been debated since ages and will be a subject of debate in future too. We have seen that being immigrant in US has helped many of the immigrants whereas on the other side it has been a leading cause of problems like depression, suicide etc. Being immigrant in US for someone means a lot of difficulties in terms of adapting to the foreign soil. An individual has to start a new life from ground zero regardless of his/her position in the previous countries. There is an only 5% chance that any individual can continue the career from where he/she dropped from the country of origin which brings a lot of depression among the immigrants. For most people, being amongst friends and relatives means a lot and gives happiness and relief to their lives. In this case nothing can be a substitute of the affection of relationships. Being immigrants, they have to stay thousands of miles apart and have to suffer this separation each and every day which leads to loneliness. This can also be a cause of depression for more than 70% immigrants according to a survey report. Big difference in the skills and education also sets the immigrants back from finding the right job at the start. Even though an immigrant has knowledge and skills from their previous homeland but due to the requirement of the US companies that the education and experience be from the US based companies, immigrants are finding harder to match the job with their skills. A lot of foreigners who move to US had first-class jobs in high positions before they were immigrants. When they reach US, it is now a different ball game. Some have hard times to find their match and thus, have to…

    The Great Depression was the hardest time for many people from the economy result of being unemployed and higher prices causing some people unable to buy food and debt. Immigrants had the toughest time during the Great Depression. Immigrants were viewed with hostility and treated badly. This caused an increase in racism and discrimination, unemployed Asian and African-Canadians were denied from jobs and high risk of being getting deported. For example, Jews suffered a lot from anti-Semitism and prejudice. Also, many jobs were closed to immigrants and employers would put a sign not letting immigrants apply. At the beginning, of the Great Depression nearly ten-thousand immigrants were deported.…

    Social scientist Tamar Jacoby states that yes, America should remain a Nation of Immigrants, immigrants keep the economy string because they take the jobs that Americans decline and work hard for less money. Jacoby says that after the September 11 attacks, it caused people to fear foreigners. He also states that the foreign-born population is now at 28 million and growing and those Illegal aliens take up between 7-8 million of the population. Jacoby also declares that the population will double in the next 50 years due mostly to foreigners. Immigrant 's reliance on welfare exceeds that of Native Americans as well. Immigrant 's also failed or refused to learn our native language and adopt our traditions. Columnist Patrick J. Buchanan states that no, America should not remain a Nation of Immigrants because immigrants coming from third world countries has caused America to no longer be a nation because we lack a familiar culture.

    I believe that illegal immigrants should not be allowed to stay in our country. By making this statement, I am not saying that I am against immigration in any way. I am happy to welcome immigrants into our country, as long as they just live under our laws like the rest of us. If they come here legally, we would be able to do background checks on them before letting them into our country so there is less of a chance of crime being committed by immigrants. I think that if immigrants want to live in our country, they should find a job and use that money to find a place to live. However, immigrants should not just use our government’s money for their possessions because when they continuously abuse the welfare system, American taxes increase at tremendous rates each year to pay for them.…

    I think immigrants play an important role in America. They help build and strengthen America's economy. Immigrants help the economy by creating their own jobs. They work in all types of occupations. They are teachers, scientists, engineers, and construction workers. Every immigrant creates 1.2 local jobs for local workers, raises wages for native workers, and attracts native-born workers from elsewhere in the country. Overall, immigrants improve economy by creating their own business or working in difficult construction places. In addition to improving America’s economy, immigrants make the country more open-minded to new possibilities. America have diverse populations with different beliefs and culture. This means that opinions aren't limited…

    Immigration is one of the most infamous topics today in American culture. The million dollar question is whether or not we should let immigrants in; legal or illegal. In my opinion, we should let immigrants in that are willing to go through the process of becoming an American citizen. Legal immigrants are tolerable, but when we start to see illegal immigrants hop the border in big packs, our economy starts to plunder with the mass amounts of immigrants we have to care for.…

    Three point seven percent of the population in America has consisted of illegal immigrants. Although these percentages of the population may not seem so bad; however, if you were to compare it to the population in 2007 which was 12.8 million and what the population is now 11.7 million ( “Immigration in Reverse”). These immigrants don’t travel over to the United States just because they can; they come over so they can help make a living for their families over the border as well as in the search for more freedoms like the settlers in America once did. Illegal immigrants should be allowed jobs within the United States since they risk their lives at their jobs, are more willing than most American workers, and create job openings more fitting for…

    ur country is currently facing a time of uncertainty and forced to make decisions about some very controversial issues. Among these issues is the question of immigrants and their role in the United States. As congressmen, the people of your state voted for you to represent their voices in the national legislature. However, I encourage you to remember all the people who are underrepresented in our government and consider their opinions when forming policies for the United States. It is important to consider the role immigrants had in the formation of our country. The very basis our country was formed on the notion of the ‘American Dream’ where anyone can achieve anything. However, the currently policies being discussed deter the people who have…

    In the United States we have more relaxed laws when it comes to visiting the U.S, but there aren’t strict laws about leaving the U.S. after visiting. Some people come to the U.S. “visiting” so that they can live here and work towards getting citizenship. That is why we should strengthen our border protection and security, but make it easier to become a citizen legally. That way we can regulate who is coming to the U.S. and know when they leave.…

    Illegal immigration has significantly increased and has raised a lot of concerns in the government due to the immigrants being undocumented and the desire to maintain their culture, religion, and language. A survey was conducted to reveal American’s viewpoint on immigration. A majority of Americans believe that there are too many immigrants entering the U.S. and that it is more important to control the border rather than dealing with the immigrants that are already in the U.S. When the U.S. economy is thriving, Americans typically have a better attitude towards immigrants and believe that immigration is beneficial to the U.S. Social workers provide a variety of services to a diverse population. Social workers need to help meet basic needs and…
